bp Trinidad and Tobago LLC (bpTT) achieved first gas at its Matapal project, about 80 km off the southeast coast of Trinidad and about 8 km east of Juniper, in 163 m of water.
Matapal, bpTT’s second subsea development, is comprised of three wells which tie back into the existing Juniper platform via two 9 km flexible flowlines, minimizing development costs and associated carbon footprint.
Matapal will deliver gas into the Trinidad gas market from resources discovered by the Savannah exploration well, drilled in 2017. Initial production of 250-350 MMscfd is expected once all wells are fully ramped up.
